Simplelogin is designed to give you a quick and simple login library that will get you up and running with an unobtrusive authorization system very quickly. It does not try to guess how you want to structure your app, it simply tries to give you a little help.

There are three primary modifications to Anthony’s original code. Most importantly, SimpleLogin–Secure uses the phpass framework for secure, portable password hashing instead of straight md5 without a salt. Secondly, SimpleLoginSecure uses an e-mail address instead of a user name as the login key. And finally, it adds user_date, user_modified and user_last_login date/time fields to the default install.
